Microsoft execs saw problems with early Vista

Seattle PI, 28th February 2008

Even some of Microsoft's top officials struggled to make Windows Vista work smoothly when it was released, according to internal e-mails released Wednesday. The messages, unsealed in a lawsuit against the company, show that Vista's early problems with hardware and software compatibility affected more than just average PC users. The e-mails also illustrate how the company will try to avoid such issues in the next Windows release.
